Late nights, Early mornings

I have been staying up way to late.  Earliest has been 11 pm.  Not good since I am up at 5 am to be at my friends house at 6 am to watch her son.  He is a cutie and all he does is sleep, eat, poop and giggle.  Oh, not to mention throwing up on me and then peeing on the bed.  Yep,  I completely forgot what happens when you change a baby boys diaper and don't cover him up right away.  How could the motherless 42 year old remember that one?

I also think he sneaks out and gets Taco Bell.  I think at 9 weeks he starts up his stroller and gets some Taco Bell to go with his night out of taking shots of formula.  Some of those diapers could make a whales eyes water with the smell.  Who knew that a baby that small could smell that bad that the whole city of Chicago can smell it.

He is a cutie and I wouldn't change anything.

Survival of Drivers Ed student

Yep.  I have survived the teenager drivers ed student.  My cousins son has started driving lessons.  He was so nervous that he wanted to borrow my football equipment I was wearing to protect myself in the passenger seat.  I could not beat to share so I let him use my tennis equipment.  Which consisted of a tennis racket and a pack of tennis balls.

Other then giving driving lessons I have been busy going to candle events and watching my friends baby.  He wants driving lessons too.  But I told him that using stilts wasn't an option for driving so i gave him a stack of encyclopedias.

Billy Bob's return

Billy Bob has made a return. He has returned from his trip to the Grand Canyon and Disney World.  Not sure if he paid for a ticket or not. 

My days

My days consist of driving car around doing things.  Things like taking my friend to the doctor or my cousins to the pool.  I of course have window clings advertising my candle business.  I love it.

Yesterday I had a vendor event during the day.  I did not sell anything but I was out there making me and the candles known.  It takes time and I love being out there talking to people stopping in and the other vendors there.

It's always good to be in a work place where people think the same as you do and love what they do.  Not to mention fun.  There are always laughs at these events.  

The Gold Canyon Candle Convention

I loved the convention. It was a blast. I'm so up pumped up and ready to work this business. I'm even In the video. Like 6 times but who's counting.  I have one good part. I'm the one walking on the red carpet into the home office twirling a shirt above my head.  No it's not the one I was wearing.  It was one they gave us. 

I'm going to work this candle business like there's no tomorrow. I know I'm going to go far and be successful. So check out the video. This is how much we have in direct sales and we also get paid for it.

The joys of working my own business

It's so nice working my own business. It is a direct sales business and I love it. I can make my own hours. People tend to shy away form these types of companies. Yes as a Gold Canyon Candle Fragrance Consultant I do home parities.  But I also do catalog parties, individual meetings and fund raisers. You can even order online. 

The candles are wonderful and have the best wax ever. The are even made in the great US of A. What more cab you ask for.

So have it and check it out, www.kellyf.mygc.com.  There's nothing to be afraid of. Once you burn one of our candles you'll never go back to the ones you have now. 

The summer, jobless and Gold Candle Canyons. Oh and the royal baby!

So far I have not found a full time job.  I have applied for jobs.  I am continuing to work on my candle business and slowly things are picking up with that.  It all takes time.  But at least I am working on something.  I believe I can make the candle business work.  I will continue working it.  I love doing it and talking to people about a product I love.

Since I have been off I have been able to take time to spend with my cousins.  A few more that others but that ok.  I also have gotten some color which I love and spending time in the pool.

This coming Wednesday July 31 I leave to go to Phoenix to go to the Gold Canyon Candle convention.  I am super excited.  There have been some changes in the home office so it will be great to see what the changes are.

I'm guessing the Kate and Will didn't talk to anyone who did have kids. Because if they did they'd know that kids suck the life out of you.  Oh, wait, they are royalty so they probably have a gaggle of nannies.  Don't get me wrong kids are great.  Only when they are someone else's.  I'm totally a fan of them but heck I can't take care of ,myself and I have 42 years of experience.  They are younger than me so it's good they have a gaggle of nannies so he doesn't pee or puke on them.  But as long as they are happy and I'm sure they are. Babies are truly a blessing.
